As you can probably see I there is a definite Christmas/winter theme to most of them, I have been busy planning for my first card buffet night at the end of the month.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">I love the simplicity of this card. I opted to use the debossed side of the cardstock.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: x-large;">I like the layers that are available in this collection. With this card I added some 3D foam tape, liquid glass, and sparkles to add some more interest to the cut images.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; line-height: 19.32px;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I am in the process of designing and prepping for my Christmas Card Buffet. I hope to have at least 15 different cards to choose from. So, it is all you can make in the 3 hours for $30 ($15 with a minimum purchase of $25). It is a great way to get a buch of Christmas Cards done and will be a lot of fun, . You get to choose what you want to make just like when you go to a food buffet. I will be posting pictures as I get the cards designed. I will post my dates for October and November, I just haven't figured out the dates yet. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: x-large;">I love all the New CTMH Paper Packets, but i had it narrowed down to 2 but as the next hop I'm participating is using Sangria so I decided to use Kaleidoscope. </span></span></div>

<span style="color: #141823; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large; line-height: 15pt;">Hi Everyone! I had fun creating 4 simple cards </span><span style="color: #141823; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large; line-height: 20px;">this month and am excited to share them with you.</span><br />
<span style="color: #141823; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large; line-height: 20px;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #141823; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large; line-height: 20px;">Here is my "April Showers" Card. This is a very simple card only using cardstock and stamps.</span><span style="color: #141823; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large; line-height: 20px;">I used the - D1634 - It's a Shower stamp set</span><br />

<span style="color: #141823; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-large; line-height: 15pt;">This next one was fun here is a "May Flower". I used one of the Hostess Rewards stamp sets - C1613 - Paper Birds. The flower is made with 6 stamped Hearts.The accessories I used are: a pink button and adhesive backed pearls (both are old CTMH products) I also used 3D foam tape to give the flower some dimension. </span><br />

I love CTMH's wonderful paper, it lends itself so well to so many themes. <b><span style="color: #45818e;">Confetti Wishes </span></b> is no exception, it is a birthday themed kit. . . or is it!! :) With its bright colours there are lots of fun possibilities.Well, as most of know I have been trying to finish scrapbooking our last trip to Disneyland, so I decided to use the bright colours in this paper pack would make another great Disney layout.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><br />
I used Magic,one of CTMH's wonderful how to books, as a starting point or my layout.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;">I love the simplistic style of this layout, but it holds a few surprises. The little dolls are from a paper that I purchased in Disneyland and trimmed to create the borders on my layout.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Love a great deal? How about 30 days of great deals? During the month of April, you have the opportunity to score a deal every day with Close To My Heart! What deals are we talking about? Each day during April, while supplies last, we’ll feature a random grab bag filled with current and retired Close To My Heart products available for purchase at a major discount. To grab your bag, simply place any current, full-priced item in your online shopping cart through your Online Business Address and you will be eligible to purchase as many grab bags as you wish (while supplies last)! Grab bags will be featured at five different price points throughout the month, ranging from $55 CAD to $160 CAD. Some grab bags will contain product with more than DOUBLE the retail value of the price you pay! Grab bags will be available for 24 hours starting at 3 pm MDT each day and only while supplies last—so visit often and early! Remember that grab bag tiers will be featured on a random schedule throughout the month, so seize the opportunity to purchase from the grab bag tier you’re interested in when it becomes available because it might not come around again! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: x-large;">Happy New Year!!</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Another year is Here! I am going to try and blog more regularly, our monthy team blog hop has helped in this area so now its up to me to build on it. So here is my first real post of the year. (the Blog hop last week was scheduled so all the work as done in December) </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-size: large;"></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">A sister Close to my Heart consultant Terry Ann posted an awesome tip she found on </span></span><a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqtpm3ZnCXZZvcmtpDCQNqw"><span style="background-color: #d9d2e9; color: blue; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">Follow the Paper Trail</span></a><span style="background-color: #d9d2e9; color: blue; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">It really caught my eye "No Plug Glue Topper for paper crafting!!"</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">How many times have we had to stop working on a project to unplug a bottle of glue so that we can use it?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">First I have to say my 10 yr old son and husband thought I was totally nuts. Hubby said "umm why are we buying baby bottle nipples the Girl has never taken a bottle?"</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">I tried it and I LOVE!!! it works really well. I now have these no plug toppers on my Liquid Glass, a quick dry adhesive, and a 3-in-1 glue it works on ALL of them. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;"></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">To create this 5 x7 card I first stamped the words on the Sunset card base using Sunset ink. I used the scallop border punch on the Thistle cardstock. I coloured these cute little guys with my copics. I used the top strip from the paper (the "EEK", can I say that I love that CTMH does this now! don't want to waste paper and they add an easy little embellishment to pages and cards)</span></span><br />

Can Blogs collect dust? If so I have some major dusting to do . . .<br />
<br />
Well what's new with me?<br />
<br />
Since my last post:<br />
<ul>
<li> I lost over 100 pounds</li>
<li>Got Pregnant!</li>
<li>Had a beautiful Baby Girl in 2012</li>
<li>Went to DISNEYLAND </li>
<li>Rediscovered my scrapbook passion/ obsession/ collection!</li>
<li>Rediscovered <a href="https://www.blogger.com/%3Ca%20href=%22http://www.hlmyers.ctmh.com/rediscover%22%20target=%22_blank%22%3E%3Cimg%20border=%220%22%20src=%22http://download.closetomyheart.com/badges/rediscover-03.gif%22/%3E%3C/a%3E" target="_blank">Close to My Heart</a></li>
</ul>
and probably much much more but lets not dwell in the past.<br />
<br />
Right now in my life I am struggling with a decision of whether or not to go back to work. I am loving being at home and just being Mom to my 2 wonderful children.(ages 16 months and almost 10yrs).<br />
<br />
I am looking into other ways to contribute to our family income. Ideally i'd like to find something that I can do that uses some of the creative skills I have developed over the years. (Scrapbooking, Colouring with Copic Markers,Card making!)<br />
<br />
So Bear with my as I work through what I want to do.<br />
<br />
TTFN<br />

My son fractured a growth plate in his ankle and is in a cast. I am on a leave from school. So let's just say I have seen my fair share of doctor's waiting rooms this week! . . . anyway. . .<br /><br />I had a pleasant surprise this week when I went to the mail box and found a stamp order that I completely forgot I ordered!!!! I got some great images from 'Lili of the Valley'. I have fallen in love with these stamps so be forewarned.<br /><br />This is what I created today! hope you like it.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicpddcYnMBVL8k6exgJEF9ml6_dQGZEknEHDRCXEi0h-u-fQybH08n8by0_L_c9crOxPUWnFiiR8DSw1BmgTY0Uwxk_-_fK19uG1rKmdMJi3obSyiOVgT4ZemYQsiPJM_EwoM0hq5NQe4/s1600/sunshine+and+smiles+compressed.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 247px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicpddcYnMBVL8k6exgJEF9ml6_dQGZEknEHDRCXEi0h-u-fQybH08n8by0_L_c9crOxPUWnFiiR8DSw1BmgTY0Uwxk_-_fK19uG1rKmdMJi3obSyiOVgT4ZemYQsiPJM_EwoM0hq5NQe4/s320/sunshine+and+smiles+compressed.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5597554311670928562" border="0" /></a><br />Here's what I used:<br /><ul><li><span style="font-style: italic;">Images - Lili of the Valley</span></li><li><span style="font-style: italic;">Patterned Paper - Heidi Grace Designs</span></li><li><span style="font-style: italic;">Ribbon - May Arts<br /></span></li><li><span style="font-style: italic;">Cardstock from Michael's (butterfly wing collection)</span></li><li><span style="font-style: italic;">Ink - Memento- tuxedo black; Brilliance- Orchid; Copics<br /></span></li><li><span style="font-style: italic;">Tools - Spellbinders nestabilities<br /></span></li></ul><br /><br /><br /><br />With love and Inky hugs<br />HeatherHeatherhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17057635074538215004noreply@blogger.com2
